The Instano
MDCCCCXII
PUBLISHED BY THE SENIOR CLASS
OF THE INDIANA STATE NORMAL
SCHOOL OF PENNSYLVANIA, 1912
CnpvriRhted, 1912
By
Charles J. Mareiotti
Arthur M. Stull
The Art Work of the Annual
THE DECORATION of the Annual was designed entirely by the Art
Class. Each designed page has a special significance. An attempt was
made to carry out the plan of the Gothic arch in the full page illustra-
tions, the most important exception to this being the frontispiece, or the
Indiana page.
THE CLASS FLOWER, the American Beauty, was thought appropriate
for the Dedication page and also for the Regular Class page. The golden
rod was selected by the public school children, for the State of Pennsyl-
vania, and therefore, was thought appropriate to represent our worthy
and faithful board of trustees.
THE OAK signifies patriotism and hospitality, and, on account of the
many beautiful old oaks on the campus, that design was chosen to re-
present the faculty of the school.
THE LAUREL was used for the Art Course. The reeds and red-winged
black bird are suggestive of music.
AS THE MAIZE is one of our important commercial products, and also a
suggested symbol for the United States, it was chosen for the Commercial
Department.
THE FLOWERS or fruits symbolic of the many nationalities found
among our students are as follows: — England, the rose; Wales, the leek;
Germany, the corn flower; Ireland, the shamrock; Scotland, the thistle;
Holland, the tulip; Sweden, the pine cone; Spain, the pomegranate.
THE LAUREL is sometimes used to symbolize the United States. It is
thought most worthy, not only because of its historic value, but because
it is evergreen, is an emblem of victory, and lends itself beautifully to
design. It was especially liked for the Annual because it is found in
every county of the state, clothing its mountains in beauty during the
entire year.
Dedication
To James E. Ament, LL. D.,
to whose executive ability, in
bringing about desirable im-
provements, the school is
indebted, we, the class of
Nineteen Hundred Twelve,
dedicate this, the first volume
of the Instano.

JAMES E. AMENT, LL. D.
In recent years the Indiana Nnrnial has shown marked development.
This may be attributed to many things, the interest taken in her by the Com-
monwealth; the gradual, but stea<ly growth of the realization that she ailords
one of the best opportunities for education given by any .school ; and lastly, the
wide-spread knowledge of the retined and homelike atmosphere of the Institu-
tion. This development is less noticeable to present sti;dente than to those who
were acquainted with the school in earlier stages of its growth. Dr. Anient, the
school's present executive, more than any other one principal the school has had,
has brought about the conditions placing Indiana foremost among the normal
schools of Peinisylvania.
James E. Anient was born, September 2, 1863, at Woodburn, Illimis, his
parents being James Roe and Emily Dodson Anient. Though born in the North,
Dr. Ament's ancestry are of Southern extraction. His great-grandfather was
Thomas Metcalfe, U. S. Senator, and former Governor of Kentucky. Directly
or indirectly, the family, on the paternal side, is also related to the Dyers and the
Monroes. Dr. Ament's mother's family, on the maternal side, were the Wil-
liamses, of Amher.st County, Virginia. Ili.s grandfather, on his mother's side,
was Dr. Eli Dodson. of iManchester, England.
Dr. Anient has great love for teaching, and teaches because of that love.
He always says that he became a teacher (|uite by accident, that he was really
intended to be an architect. His training in, and knowledge of, architecture has
been of the greatest value to him, however, in his work of building up great
schools. His early education was received in the public schools of his native
state, and in Valparaiso Univensity. Later, his interest in education led him to
graduate from th(> Illinois State Normal University. Kentucky University made
him a Doctor of Laws. Though never matriculating as a regular student, Dr.
Ament has been an independent student of University Administration at the
seats of several of our noted universities. For this purpose, he lived a year at
Ann Arbor.
Dr. Ament's teaching career began in 1882, at which time he became a
teacher in the public schools of Illinois. In 1802, he was chosen superintendent
of schools of Carroll, Iowa. He left this position in 1895 to become Superintend-
ent of the City Schools of Rock Island, Illinois, the last position he held in public
school work. In 1897, he 'became the first president of the Northwestern State
Normal School at Alva. Oklahoma. In 1904 he iiecame president of the State
Normal School at Warrensburg, ^lissouri, continuing there until 1906, when he
took up his work as principal of Indiana State Normal School. In all the positions
he has held, large growth has come to the .school, and hi.s admini.stration is always
remembered as one of great prosperity. During his work as an educator, he has
contributed many articles, based on educational problems, which are of great
value. Dr. Anient is also a member of the National Educational Association.

TRUSTEES
A man or woman in public or in private life, who ever
works only for the sake of the reward that comes for the
work, will in the long run do poorwork always. I do not care
where the work is, the man or woman who does work worth
doing is the man or woman who lives, breathes, and sleeps
that work; with whom it is ever present in his or her soul;
whose ambition it is to do it well and feel rewarded by the
thought of having done it well. That man, that woman,
puts the whole country under an obligation.

PITTSBURGH
Y. W. C. A. Treasurer of Y. W. C. A.
An excellent example of "still water runs
deep." Her favorite yell, which sometimes in-
trudes into her laugh, is "Wah-Hoo." probably
because she comes from Allegheny High. About
nine o'eolck each night she can be seen peeking
out the diiiii-. singing the Letter song. Of all
occupalio.is, her most us\ial one is hurrying
through the hall to .Mack's table, (?).. Could
Margaret ex])ress her opinion of her duty toward
time, it woukl run somi'thing like this "What's
time? Leave Now for dogs and apes. I have
Forever." She is very fond of IMother Goose

HICKORY
Why so (piict .' Who. you sa.v ? Why Jean-
ette, of course. Among our many classmates
there is one who is especially quiet and studious.
She is jdua\s in an attentive attitude, and when
she is called u|)on. no o:ic rcs|)onds with more
activity. .Nil one is in the I'unning with her,
will n it comes to displaying dignit.v. Did yon
ask about her boy friend'.' What a foolish idea,
to associate her name with that of a bo.v, for she
intends to remain single. Her ideals are to im-
prove the land by her teaching. As a student in
History and Jlethods she has few peers, and if
you should happen to fiiul her name among the list of noted educator.s, in a few
years, do not be surprised.

CLARA M. ANDERSON
PITTSBURGH
"Sissir"
Associate Editor INSTANO: Y. W. C. A.
"Much ado about nothing." She has always
flunked ( ?) every review, yet comes out at the
head. (Strange, don't you think?) She is a
great vegetarian, even preferring eggs to candy.
The only fault she has to find with eats in gen-
eral, is that they are too nourishing. Clara is al-
ways talking about some sort of a State, but
never enlightens us as to whose or what state it
is. The only thing we know about it is that each
Monday she receives a letter, "once and only
once, and from one only."
ELEANOR L BAILEY
TITUSVILLE
Y. W. C. A.
This bright, dark-eyed maid hails from the
far-famed towTi of Titusville. She is a full sis-
ter of Peek's bad boy, and can outshine that
youngster in mischief any hour of the day or
night. She really has tried to reform since she
came to Indiana, but ahus, it is a hopeless task.
Some of her favorite expressions arc, "Call me
early," and "I refuse." The latter is generally
accompanied by a stamp of the foot which can be
heard very plainly at least four floors below.
"When anyone speaks of colors, Eleanor is at
once attracted to the spot and tempted to voice hci
sists that she prefers green, especially "Ked Green.

"Peg"
Assistant Editor SOPHIST; Erodelphian.
Peg is one of oar literary stars, and a,s assist-
ant editor of the Sophist, she has shown the ma-
terial of which she is made. She is quite enthu-
siastic, and whatever she undertakes is sure of
being well done. Her pet aversion is too much
work, and her hobbies are eating peanuts and re-
citing poetry. She usually announces her arrival
by, "Oh say. kids," and she always has some-
thing new and exciting to talk about. Although
she is no go.ssip, it is certainly true of her that,
"Age cannot wither her, uor customs stale her
infinite variety."
MYRTLE M. BALMER
CROSSCREEK
Y. W. C. A.
When Myrtle came to us, she was one of the
most reticent girls of the class. This has gradu-
ally worn away, so that by this time we are able
to "see her as she really is. That is to say, we
know her to be a lively, cheerful and jolly young-
ster. She is not one of those who find pleasure
in classes only, yet one will always find her an
industrious student. We have already decided
from her description of the place, that Cross-
creek is quite an important place, although we
have not been able to find it on the map. At any
rate, it was quite a place when it turned Myrtle
over to our care.

Y. W. C. A.; Huyghenian
No, this girl, wlio is so fond of France has
never seen the sight of gay Paris, although last
September gay Paris came to her. "Study, study,
all the time" is her motto, and any time yon walk
in at the "open door" (and that is a Mystery)
you can find her reclining on the couch devour-
ing a book. No talking in her room about senti-
ment and futures. She is a devout member of the
Mission Studv, you know.
JANET B. BEMIS
WEST MIDDLETOWN
"Jerry"
Our meek friend from West Middletown, the
grandest place in the whole world, has one very
admirable quality, this is her loyalty. Although
we have mentioned this first, do not think it is
her greatest acquirement. She is a singer of no
mean ability, as well as a baker. If she continues
to improve in the music line, she will, without
doubt, become famous, for she has a voice like a
nightingale. There is no room for improvement,
however, when it comes to baking bread.

"A noljle mind the best cimtentment has."
Polly is a dear, gracious, little saul, warm heart-
ed and loyal. We always asaoclate her with
good times, laughter and merriment. She has
always a new fad and has created great astonish-
ment among her friends by sticking to basketball
for two .seasons. She takes up each new fad with
■rreat enthusiasm. l)ut has never yet displayed
that ()uality of ardor on the way to Recitation

"Peg"
Erodelphian; Y. W. C. A.
"None knew her but to love her." Peggy is
the person to whom we always confide our littk
trials and in whom we are always sure of a sym-
pathetic listener. She is not at all sentimental,
but spends most of her valuable time in compos-
ing verses and we predict a success near to that of
Shakespeare. To .iudge her poetic ability one needs
only to turn to the Class Poem. Margaret is one
of the most conscientious students in the class, and
a girl who perseveres as she does, cannot fail to be successful in practically any
undertaking.

"Dibby"
Associate Editor INSTANO; Erodelphian; Y. W. C. A.
"None but herself can be her paraUel." There
is an old proverb which says, "Good goods ore
put up in small packages." We'll guarantee this
statement, for here we have a fair sample. She
is a friend to everybody, and her bright smile is a
welcome gift to those fortunate ones on whom it
is cast. Dibby speaks French and Latin and noth-
ing puzzles her in Gennan. not even Mr. Bow-
man. If anyone dares to look at her while she Ls
reading she is up in arms at once, and watches
over books as a lioness does her cubs.

pie!" Helen M. Brennan, a really lovely girl,
has one all-absorbing passion, and that is an inde-
fatigable appetite for apple pie. Next in the
rank of her afifections comes her love for dancing
and all forms of athletics. Most lovers of out-
door sports are .slovenly and rather happy-go-
lucky, but not so with her. She is very precise
and neat. — a great virtue considered in an ethical
sense. But only her good qualities have been
cited here; she has some failings. The most pro-
nounced of these are her horror of mice, and the
fear that she will some day marry a small man.
She also has a great tendency to sputter about in French to room-mates who know
nothing but German. Summing up all her qualities, both good and bad, it must
be decided that the good ones carry down the scales, and the general opinion that
Helen is "a pretty good old scout, after all" must be accepted.

of the 0. K. O.. a very well-knowii society, and as
a result we should feel honored by her company.
Her one main desire in life is to find out every-

"Some eyes may sparkle, some may dance.
Some may charm you, but Helen's entrance."
Helen is one of these girls who make friends
wherever they go. Whether this is due to these
entrancing eyes, spoken of before, or to some oth-
er quality, we do not know. We do know, how-
ever, that she Ls a jolly good girl, and that she is
quite popular. As a student, also, she is no slouch,
and there is sure to be some mistake if by any
chance she happens to be reported. It has been

not keep a secret. This does not hold good in this instance, for Helen can imitate

pate in quarrels of any nature, not even with a
teacher over an unprepared lesson. Of course,
she does not know the meaning of an unprepared

A girl with an ideal purpose.

It is generally coneeded that everyone has
many faults, and of these, one fault is always
predaminant. The greatest fault we can find
with Edith, however, is that she has so few. She
is always quiet and unas-suming when in the pub-
lie view, but behind the scenes, she is somewhat
different. There is no one who is quite so anx-
ious to raise the roof of Sutton Hall by laughing
and holwing. and no one as glad as she when
rough-house is begun. In spite of this unpardon-
able fiiult, bnwevcr. .she is liked by everyone.

take "Butch" as a real live example of his the-
ory. Never put out about anything, always
cheerful and talkative, she is sunshine personi-
fied. The greatest mystery connected with Ruth

This dark haired girl from the "Smoky
City" first came into prominence at the Senior
Ilayride, and has remained in the public eye
ever since. Tall, stately and dignified, she
makes a favorable impression wherever she
goes. She is a close second to Sara Finkle in
taking care of Mt. Vesuvius. When her course
in Normal is done she will join the ranks of
the unfortunates who will instruct the coming
generations.

Hazel attended high school at Imperial, l)ut
that failed to satisfy her ambitions, so she came
to Normal. One thing for which many of us are
glad is that she is so cheerful that she makes a hit
wherever she goes. She spends a great portion
of her time in matters of correspondence, hut it
must not be thought that she does nothing but
write ,for she is really a studious girl, and stands
out as one of the lights of the class of 1912. It
is not necessary to take a vote to determine
whether or not she is popular, for it is conceded
by everyone.

When Sis came to Indlfnia no one thought
there were any belLs on her. but then you know
we are living in an age of advancement. She has
risen step by step, luitil she has become one of the
best all around girls in the school. In tennis
there are few who surpass her, in basketball there
are none. The only drawback to her success is
that .she is not acquainted with city life, but she
is fast overcoming that and promises after these
many years of sad experiences and disappoint-
ments, to become well versed in matters of im-
portance. We suspect that in a few years she
will consider herself a well experienced person.

"If she will, she will; aud there's an end of

all r'eeords in seliolar.ship in high school, and she
is still keeping up the pace at Normal. She de-
lights in outdoor sports, especially tennis, and is
always in for a good time. '"If I were any earlier,
I'd be too early," may often be heard ringing
through the halls. After she has taught two
years, it is her intention to go through college.
As for the two year.s. she would like to have a

If you don't believe the saying that it is a

will say one thing at ten o'clock, and at ten one
will think the direct opposite. Her title to the
tennis championship of Indiana is uncpiestion-

cups. Her one occupation is wiggling out of

Listen! Wliat is that roisi' ? Oh that is only

however, she enjoys entertaining much more than

she will surely succeed.

member of the elas,s of '12, and shows her s[)irit
by entering enthusia.stieally into all the "doings"
of the class, whether they be sleigh rides or color
rushes. She is quite fond of studying, too, and
takes special delight (?) in .such subjects as Lat-

the mysteries of housekeeping, and occasionally
is heard to give valuable instruction.s in this art.

one of the problems of the day. but, be it said,
this affectation of dignity is merely an assumed

She seems to be especially fond of the davenport

in the evening. It is a question among those who
know her which she likes best — pie or candy.
Does Ted like warm weather? Well, at any riite,

the school record before long. He spends most of
his time at his studies and reading poetry. "Pas-

early to rise." He sets the alarm in a conveni-
ent place where he can turn off the gong, and
then turns over for a few more hours' sleep. But
with all his faults he is a mighty good fellow, full
of energy, and always ready to do the right thing

in ]\Iathematics and Physics; but do not think
that Zella ha.s attained her good marks by not

In the Winter term of her Senior year, she found
she had timi' to train her voice, and who .shall say

readinir it they don't have to pause, unless it is
in snrprise at its frequent recurrence. Zella 's
one trial is her size, but never mind, Zella, we

is seldom seen in "Rec Hall" and when she

After graduating from her high school, Min-

in her, for in high .school, (where, by the wa.\,
she studied), she was very shy, and had no time
for the frivolities of youth, such as dancing. She
has grown out of her ideas concerning such
things, however. If all girls in our school were

"Please go way and let me sleep." Ruth is
a demure little maid, but she has acquired one
habit which even ''Laney" cannot break. This
is that exquisite habit dear to the hearts of all
Indiana Normal girls — sleep, sweet sleep. Even
the alarm clocks, these melodious musical instru-
ments, have gone on a strike because, after their
continuous efforts to arou.se the sleeper, they gel
no other reward than a deep sigh. Ruth i.s very
fond of her studies, especially Physics. Whether
the teacher has anything tq do with this fond-
ness, we do not know.

There is one exception to this, which I almost fm--

says many funny things, but always leaves a

are intended for wit. or are merely the rambling.s of a diseased brain. A living

Associate Editor INSTANO; Erodelphian; Y. W. C. A.
"Peg" — one of the three greatest talkers of
the class of 1912. "Divinely tall and most di-
vinely fair," she has made a name for herself in
more ways than one, having great executive abil-
ity and initiative, which the class has learned to
appreciate. Her chief occupation and delight, —
chewing gum ; her one ambition, — to become a
star in grand opera some time in the near future ;
her ideals of human perfection, — Paderewski and
Lillian Nordica; her favorite song, — The Amer-
ican Soldier ; her chief accomplishment, — sewing.
With all this, she is still a very inconspicuous girl

How Anna Belle did like History ! Morning,

She is known for her high class standing. Her
greatest ambition is to teach higher mathematics.
She is extremely good-natured, and has learned
from long experience to smile, when her heari-
less neighbors disturb her afternoon naps. Her
motto is: "Laugh and the world laughs with
you, weep and you weep alone." Her favorite
amusement is playing tricks on her friends, but
the appearance of the hall teacher settles ilabel

ambition is realized, she will look back over her

"When "Prank" first came to Indiana she was
aeeused of being pretty and sensible, a combina-

to the latter, "Actions speak louder than words,"
and when we see Prank slip out of her "apart-

Poetic Helen live.s for nothing but class timt

poetic inspirations, she is a great lover of nature.
At the end of the week, nothing gives her more

"Kitty's" favorite pastime is listening to a cer-

study is "Gym." The most sensil)le tiling about
her is her considerate judgment in matters con-

"Who will translate my German for me?" and
the answer, "Ask Alice," and so on in all of our
studies; she was always willing to help. But
she didn't like Arithmetic, and for some reason
Arithmetic didn 't like her, and when it fell upon
her to teach it at IVIodel School, it seemed like the
last straw. But she dug right in, and is getting

saying, — "Smile awhile and while you smile an-

She is faithful in discharging all duties, espe-
cially those of the tire brigade, allowing neither
weather nor pi*evious occupation to interfere
with her answering all alarms. She displays I
great ability as an architect, especially in the

a natural aptitude toward sauer kraut, weiners

think in the little flat which she tells us she in-

hundred and twelve supervisors' class, but some

and this her custom of gazing into her mirror at
her comely features. "Vanity, vanity, all is

spellable,unpi'onoixneeable name, came from the
"Smoky City" witli the cxiJi-ess design of taking
as many hearts away with her as possible ; but
it seems as if "Cy" has kind of upset her afore-
said design. Her favorite expression is. "Oh,
what's the use, I will never get this stuff off,"
having reference to accounting and banking.

CLASS HISTORY
BY
ANNABELLE LIVINGSTON
Yes, here we are. humchecl in the stream of 1912 — "Seniors." Now. of
course, you would all like to hear something of the exciting adventures which
have befallen us in our .iourney as we have manned our boat through the shallows
of Junior Land, into the stream of Middli' Year, anchoring finally in the deep,
rearing waters of Seniority.
Listen! In the fall of nineteen hundred nine our little craft started its
voyage. The weather was bright and clear, the greatest difficulty we had at fir.st
being that of finding our bearings. We were co!itinually lost in the winding and
turns of the wilderness of Recitation Hall. but. by calm judgment and speed.v
rowing, we were soon, each morning at eight o'clock sharp, ready to take up oui-
quest ftn- knowledge.
While finding our bearings, we became fairly well ac((uainted with each other
and were able to sail swiftl.y and peacefull.v along. Once in a while we were
slightly .iolted when the great waves of Algebra and Latin bumped into ouv
craft, but with that determination which characterizes our class, we p\it our
shoulders to the wheel .and calmly rode over the menacing waves.
Once in a while we brought our boats to rest and within the cheerful glades
of the girls' dornutory. disembarked. There, recreating ourselves with health-
ful pleasures, we spent many happy hours.
Hut. lo ! in the horizon looineil up a cloud. "What could it mean? Ah. a
shi[). and printed ui)on it in large letters the words, "State Board E.xams." Did
we cower down before it? Did we turn from our course and let it sweep us'
away? No. for, tightening our rigging and taking a deep, long breath, we swe])t
down to meet it. The combat was finished liy the end of June. 1910. and a .ioyful
shout went up when we learned we wcit victorio\is. Right royally were our
colors fl.ving as we bade each other farewell and separated to our different homes.
Once again, in the fall of 191(1. with minds invigorated by the long rest,
we met to continue our .journey. This time \vf had need of a larger craft, for
oiu- niunbcrs wci-e enforced by a large group of tho.se who were half in the

>TBg ^
•liiiiiiir iiii'l IimII' in the MiddliT StrcMiii, tliiis lii'ini; callcil Juiiior-Jliddlers. We
|ii-ii\c(l ;i iiiijrhty I'liri'i' in jmsliing our Ixiat (inward.
Till' sti'i'aiii liad. durini; this part (li' the journey, become rougher, for, with
it.s nian\' angh's and cui-vcs, geouietry most rudely forced itself into our path and
i|uitc a lew of our nunihcr upset and were ilrowned beneath the weight of the
triangles and s(|uares which cruelly bore them down. But with our beautiful
black and red Hag bri.skly floating in the bri'c/.e the tide bore lis on.
^Ve at this |>oinl came in contact with the Seniors traveling landward for
a hayridc, Xow. i|nite imi)ertinently. without our knowledge, they had hoisted
tlicii- yi'llnw and l)lack high in the air. trusting to fate that we should not see it.
Ilul iiiir vigilant gu;ird discovered it and at once raised a hue and cry. Tnunedi-
alcly each one sj)rang to his post and. boldly .sailing against the Senior skitf. care-
h.ssly plucked their wa\'ing banners down and pas.sed them by with a ])itying
smile.
And so we had glided into the month of October, the beautifnl Indian Siun-
mer. We decided to liave a little festivity and so made prepaiMtion to stop one
night and, within the bowers of "l{ec" Hall, make our ajijx'arauce in society.
Accordingly the last Saturday of October wc canu' to rest. Searching the forest
for the brilliant autumn leaves and borrowing one or two Jack-o'-]janterns from
,1 neiglil)oring farm, we proceeded to "Kcc" Hall. This, with our leaves and
lanterns, wc transformed into the old-time enchanted forest, \\hile in various
cornel's, the great corn shocks spoke of m.vsterious elves and witches. Festooned
ai'ound the chandeliers was the dear old I'cd and black, and the soft redtlish light
which it cast over everything added just the right touch to make one feel in a
bewitched country.
Never did music .sounil softer anil more alluring, never did hearts seem
hafipicr! Svviftl.\- the moments carried away the hours which have now become
only memories, but memories so sweet that they will never be forgotten.
But now the time had come when we must sail on again, so we put to sea.
Keen, b!li.ig winds cd' C'a'sar and Chemistry blew arountl us, but we drew our
cloaks closer and stormed through them.
One day. as we were sluggishly idling along, we .saw a dove floating in the
airaboNcus. Ijooking (dosely we saw that it had an envelope in its mouth and
that if .seemed to be trying to catch up with us. AVe anchored and waited to see
what it would do. We ditl not wait long, for it swiftl.y floated downward and
dr()p[)cd the eavelnpc which it had in its bill in our midst. Quickly the captain
oj)cned the letti'r and read, "Each member of your crew ha.s been admitted to the
196
THE INSTANO 1912
j^maj
ranks which are to wage war this year against thuse valiant warridrs known as
State Board Examiners. Prepare for combat at once." With that we gavr a
niiglity cheer and sailed forward with all speed. One whole week we .spent in the
contlict, each morning going at it with renewed vigor, and so well did we answei
the shots of the State E.xaniiners that by the week's cud 11ii'\- wore (|iiilc fagged
out. On the twenty-eighth day of June, the decisinn was gravely announced
and loud were the whoops of joy when we learned that once again we had passed
through the contiiet unscathed.
When in September, 1011, we once more put forth for the completion of oiu-
journey, we were Seniors. Two hundred and fifty some were there of ns, eai-li a
strong, hearty warrior, ready to do any duty which fell to his lot in lln' joiinn'v.
Proud, indeed, were we tlie first day we spent in iiilsnicting the ehildi'fii |)laei'd
under our care in Model .scliool ; never will we foi'gct our first pupils, nor the sen-
sations we had when we first faced them. Surely that cold, clannny, nervous
feeling did not — ^but hush, I must .speak of it no more.
The time soon came around when we set landward for our ha\-ride. Loy-
ally did our Senior warriors work at hoisting the dear old Senior flag, which re-
mained where they placed it, for not a Middler could summon up enough cour
age to pluck it from its stronghold. The day for the hayride dawned bright and
clear, and early in the morning we set off, .startling the birds and S(piirrels with
our .songs and merry laughter. After a day of delightful enjoyment we turned
seaward again and steered farfhei- on.
As we went, we discussed whether we should or should not ]iul)lisli a book
telling you all about our advenfui'cs, giving you hints and jjointci's to help you
along the way, and, lastly, having some memento for ourselves as a remembrance
of the school days spent in Indiana. We decided we irovld ]iublisli such a book.
We did, and you now have this Instnno, the second annual published by Indiana
Seniors in the history of all the classes which she lias graduated. Do we not
justly feel proud of it .'
It would take long to tell you of how wc enjoyed imr class sleigli rid(\ Ihe
first ela.ss sleigh-ride Indiana has had for the past four or five years. I dare .sa\
we enjoyed it much more than the Middlers did theirs.
Enough to say the harbor is now in sight, and we offer up a silent jiraser
that there may be no shipwreck, that each member of llic vvi'w. even though those
round about him slumber, may remain
" strung in will
To strive, to seek. t(j find, and not to \ield."

CLASS POEM
BY
MARGARET BERT
Seated one winter evening,
By my flre-plaoe. alone,
I saw in tlie burning coals
The friends thai I had known.
I saw the red brick buildings.
With many vanes o'er-grotwn.
I viewed again the North-door aiU,
That massive, worn-down stone.
I thought of the forty classes
That had crossed that sill since we.
And in fancy saw the boys and girls
As they crossed continually.
I pictured the scene at parting.
Saw the black-robed girls and boys;
1 recalled ag'ain their sadnesses
And lived again their joys.
There were noble aspirations
Among that student throng,
I wondered if their fulfillment
Had helped to right the wrong.
[ thought o'f my own ideal.
And that it was not yet won,
That I had few years before me
And might not see it done.

THE INSTANO 1912
y^^ ■ 1
Then a falling ember roused nie.
And the life I dreamed was run
Is open still before me
And the race has just begun.
As each youth leaves an impress,
Upon the old door-sMl,
So each must trace his purpose.
Be It for good or ill.
.\s I rose with the dream yet upon me
And added fuel to the fire,
I added to my ambition
The fuel of desire.
And resolved as the flames leaped upward
That I'd reach upward, too,
And each day gain fresh courage
For the work I hope to do.

Tune: Love's Oid Sweet Song
To teaehers anJ to classmates dear.
Whom we have loved so well while here,
To Indiana's joy^ and fears
We bid farewell through a mist of tears.
Though we have struggled hard and oft despaired.
Yet, unto us the victory is declared.
CHORUS —
Fare thee well, then, Normal,
Friends and schoolmates dear;
In your haMs, our voices
You no more shall hear.
Out into the wide world
We shall soon be gone.
From our Alma .Mater,
Fate calls us on.
Fate calls us on.
Though we have gone, our memory will be.
Of 'happy days that we have spent with thee.
Of friendships formed which time can ne'er efface
And of faithful ones who helped us win the race.
Our loyalty and love we give to thee
To whom we owe whate'er in life we be.

FRANKLIN P. MT. PLEASANT
ATHLETIC COACH
Franklin P. Mt. Pleasant, one of the best
known athletes of the present day, was born
at Niagara Falls, N. Y., of Indian parentage.
He was, at an early age, sent to the Carlisle
Training School at Carlisle, Pa., and spent a
large portion of his life there By his great
work he reflected much credit on this school
and kept his name constantly 'before the pub-
lic during his stay there.
The great athlete is more or less a pro-
duct, and Mr. Mt. Pleasant is no exception.
Showing at first no extraordinary ability, by
careful training and eonstant work he finally
reached a rare state of perfection. A star at
any game requiring physical strength — base-
bail, football, track and basketball — he is in-
deed a remarkable athlete. It is in foot'ball
and track work that Mr. Mount Pleasant is
pre-eminent. On the track he is a sprinter,
doing the hundred in ten seconds, the 220 iu
twenty-two and two-fifth seconds, and a quar-
ter in fifty seconds. His limit has never been
reached in the quarter, as when he made his
record he trotted across the finish. His hobby,
however, is broad jumping, and in this event
he made the 190S Olympic team. His longest
recorded jump is twenty-four feet, four inches,
but he did this in practice and not in a meet,
his record standing at twenty-three feet, nine inches. During the games at Ijondon he
was .greatly handicapped by a strained ligament, and the inclemency of the weather,
which had a peculiar effect upon his nature. However, his real ability was shown in
the games at Paris, where he won the broad jump, defeating Irons, the Olympic cham-
pion, and establishing a new French record.
At foot'ball Mr. Mt. Pleasant is superb. All critics agree that in this style of
game he is peerless. He can kick with the best, is a sure tackier, and gives an exhibi-
tion of skill and headwork rarely witnessed. As a man, Mt. Pleasant is a frank, open-
hearted gentleman, quiet and courteous. He is an artist on the piano and a great lovsr
of music. He is exceedingly modest in regard to his athletic ability, and if you ask
him about it, you will experience the famed taciturnity of the American Indian.
To meet Frank Mt. Pleasant is to like him, to know him is to admire him: to
live in the same little world with him is to appreciate his sterling qualities and his
noble nature.

WILLIAM F. SMITH
The football season of 1!)11 opened with seven of the 1910 eleven back in
their old positions. Although Doiijilass. Crane. ^leCarter and Rufifner were
sorely missed at first, the new material soon rounded into .shape and filled up the
holes left by the four stars of 1910. With Capt. "Whitey" Smith as a nucleus,
and Frank Mt. Pleasant as coach, the Normal team turned out to be one of the
best of its class. In Capt. Smith we had one of the best leaders possible, outside
of the larger colleges. Had Normal been in the scholastic class Smith would
have been All-Scholastic fullback. Rheam and Gayley were considered the best
pair of ends outside of the colleges and would also have been All-Scholastic men
if Normal had been in that class.

THE INSTANO 1912
iM^^^BV-w
MALCOLM SMITH
The whole line with the exception of Cochran, was of last year's men and
with their year's experience together became a stonewall defense. The back
field, with the exception of Smith, were all new men at Normal but experi-
enced in football. Both White and Loughry were excellent ground gainers
through a broken field and with Smith and Morrow as line plungers a better
back field would be hard to find.
The pro.spects for next year are very bright, as Margiotti will be the only
one lost by graduation in tlie spring.

INDIANA-BEAVER FALLS GAME
The Indiana Normal football team closed a very successful season when, on
November 20, a 0-0 game was played with "Kiski." We met teams representing
the best schools in our class in Western Pennsylvania, and thanks to the thorough
work of Coaches Frank Mt. Pleasant, the old Carlisle star, and McDowell, of W.
& J., the season ended with a very creditable record.

INDIANA-BELLEFONTE GAME
During the year, in nine games, we scored a total of 151 points. In return,
27 points were scored against ns. Of these 12 were made by the team from Wash-
ington and Jefferson College. Indiana went out of her class in meeting this
school, but the fact that we held them to so small a score on their home grounds,
proves the quality of our team to be of the highest class.

Tech. University of Pittsburgh and Washington & Jefferson College. This was
unjust, as they should have run against Mercersburg. Pittsburgh High and other
Prep. Schools.
Before the meet no one considered Indiana as even worthy of notice. The

onl3- Pittsl)urgh paper which reeogiuzed the entry said. "They may prove a dark
horse." This editor .showed rare foresight, for the position at the end of the race
was :
Indiana Xonnal won; Carnegie Tech. second, and Pitt, third.
The time for the race was 3:52 minutes, which was a new record for the
indoor mih' in Western Penns.ylvania.
Crawford, one (if the fastest (|nartcr-milcrs in AVe.stern Pennsylvania, ran
first for Tech. while Stnll ran liivst for Indiana. Crawford w,)n his quarter by
about ten feet. W. & J. was third, with Pitt fourth.
From the .start the race was one l)et\veen Tech and Indiana, W. & J. and
Pitt never having a look-in.
Wilson ran .second for Indiana, and Yahres. a green man. represented Tech.
Wilson easily won from him, but Lewis, who had a nnieh faster opponent, lost
some ground.
Brown, of Indiana, ran last and ran a remarkable quarter. He caught
ilurphy, a Tech man. not more than fifty yards from the start, and gradually
drew away from him, winning by about twenty feet.
This relay won for Indiana the Inter-Collegiate champion.ship of Western
Pennsylvania.
The members of the team, Brown, Lewis, Wilson and StuU, were given their
"I." All of these, with the exception of Wilson in this race, won their letter for
the first time.
Indiana wa.s also well represented imlsidi' of the relay. Wilson also taking
a third place in the 60-yard handicap and White taking a second in the novice
quarter-mile.

If we can juds'e fi'din the present out-
look, we are safe in saying tliat Indiana
will have one of the most sueeessful base-
ball seasons she has ever experienced.
A nnniber of the former stars will be in
the linc-np and will contribute in no
s.nall extent to the success of the team.
]\Iartin. last year's captain, will be in
hi-: iild piiiition at third ba.se; Gayley
will make someone hustle for a job at the
initial corner; llart and Rheam will he
the stand-bys in the box. and Peelor.
Marlin, Wilson, Maloiiey and Carmalt
are all likely candidates for positions on
the Varsity team.
I>y makingr the following .schedule,
<William F. Smith has again proved his
worth as a competent manager:

The big game of the season was played on ^hu-cli 1. between the Seniors
and the Facnlty, in the Xew Auditorinni. The game was featured by the earn
estness of the contestants and the good will with whieh everybody took the bumps.
All the players went into the game for blood and a good many got it, as skinned
knees and elbows were very much in evidence toward the end of the game. The
floor was very slippery and this added to the amusement of the crowd, as it
seemed to delight them immensely to see the staid old members of the Faculty.
and the dignified Seniors. sprawling on the glassy tloor. The game, of course, re-
sulted in a victory for the Seniors by a large score, the final count being 17 to 4.
Miss Eyre refereed the game to the satisfaction of everybody, but "Lengthy"
Jlyers, who could not call time out often enough to renew his supply of oxygen.
To name the stars of the contest I would have to go over the whole line-up, so I
will give nothing but the summary.

The girls' basketball team made it two straight by defeating Blair.sville,
February 3d. In spite of the fact that the game was played on the home floor,
Blairsville was powerless. At times each Indiana girl made herself prominent
by great work. The close guarding of Bowes and Seanor, however, was a feature.

Tlie first defeat of the season was met at the hands of Pittsburgh Central

After the vietory at Crafton. the team .journeyed to Geneva College, where
they took the home team over to the tnne of 23 to 4. In spite of the fact that the
score was one-sided the game was exceedingly interesting. The guarding was
espet'ially praise-worthy, for Geneva was held to one field goal. On the other
hand the playing of Wassell and Grable was at all times very good. The seore:

downing Aliquippa in a one-sided game at the New Auditorium. In spite of the
fact that the score was large, some very clever plays were executed. Wassell was
the individual star, scoring twelve field goals. The guarding of Bowes and Ray

Blairsvillt' broke even in thr series with Indiana by winning 11 to 10. A
certain gentlemen of gtwd intentions, no donbt. from lilairsville. undertook to
referee the first half. His work in this line was certainly a joke. It would be
diffieult to decide who played the best game for Indiana. The playing of JMiller,
of the Blair.sville team was, without question remarkable, for she played one of the
greatest games ever seen on this floor, scrn-ing all of Rlairsville's points. The score :

Contrary to all expectations, Indiana failed "to come back" at Pittshui'gh
Central High and lost a fast and furious game by the score of 21 to 17. Never-
theless our team deserves credit for the showing they made in the second half.
The first half ended 14 to 3 in favor of Pittsburgh. Indiana was not held back
by thi.s, however, and fought until the end. The score was tied at 17 and an extra

We must congratulate the girls for tiie tigiiting spirit they displayed dur-

to the contrary led them to fight harder. ]Miss Eyre is to be praised for her work
in handling the team, and it is not due in the least to insutificient work on her
part that we did not win the champion.s'hin of Western rennsylvania.
A glance at the following table will prove that the girls have acquitted

There are two excellent papers in tln' selnMil. These are the Normal Ili'rald
and the Sophist. The Normal Herald is a paper written especially for the
alumni, to wiiom it is sent. It is edited om-e a term and contains a record of the
doings of the school, written up in a very delightful manner. Such events as a
society play, a class dance, a musical entertainment, or a faculty baby are given
a place in the Herald and are th\is made known to the old graduates who are

RELIGIOU S
CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATIONS
In order to be an "all-around" man or woman, one must develop not only
physically and nlentally. but also spiritually, lint in the school life, as in no
other, one is prone, if unjTuidi'd, to become a "lo[)sided" person. He will develo]i
his mental or ])hysical sid(» Init alack — the .spiritual is too often neglected.
Indiana, a wi.se mother indeed, realized this; and in order to send out as
teachers men and women who were "all-aroiuid men and women," secured a eerti-
ticate of membership from the State Association of Pennsylvania, July 21, 1897,
and organized within her portaLs, not onl.y a Young Women's Christian Associa-
tion, but also a Young ]\Ien's. In 1906 a national charter was received by the
association.
By means of the two meetings held each week — Sunday and Thursda.y — the
members of the organizations have a source of great spiritual ujtlift. By leading
in thftse meetings, they are taught to be "worth while" leaders in the home. The
social gatherings every now and then give one good ideas which ma.v be success-
fully carried out in "Young People's Gatherings," where Indiana's graduates
are always expected to lead.
%* The well-furnished Y. W. C. A. parlor and reading room is a delightful
haven, where one may betake himself whenever school hoiu-s are over, and settling
in a comfortable rocker, with a weekly paper at hand, forget the da.y's cares and
troubles.
During the fall term, Bible stud.v classes are carried on, in the winter term,
mission study classes, and in the spring, Bible stud.v is resumed.
The Indiana booklets distributed in the fall term, aid materially in helping
the new students to find out various little rules and reg\dations which otherwise
would be a source of great trouble to them.
The "Wliat-so-p]ver Circle," a branch of the Y. W. C. A., carries on work
which the Y. W. C. A. cannot undertake. p]ach week they buy delicacies for the
infirmary, occasionall.y they visit the Count,v Home, holding service there and
cheering the poor inmates by the sight of fresh, happy, school-girl life. In fact
they do "What-so-Ever" they can to help and cheer others.

THE LITERARY CONTEST
Huyghenians 4; Erodelphians 5
The Fourth Annual Contest of the Huyghenians and Erodelphians was hr.lrt
Thursday evening, March 28.
The chapel was beautifully decorated In smilax and cut flowers, red carnat'.oi s
tied with red ribbon being on the Huyghenian .side of the rostrum, and white lilies tied
with blue on the Erodelphian.
The program was opened with "Ainia Mater," sung by the members of both soo'-
eties. Then alternately until Mr. Gordon introduced the first speaker, the two sidas
gave their cheers and yeUs. The cheeriu.i? was hearty and vociferous. The leaders
were Willard Brown for the Huyghenians, and Joe Wilson for the Erodelphians.
The judges for the literary numbers were Rev. ,lo,seph H. Baucman, D D,, from
Washington and Jefferson College; Dr. John F. Bigler, of Edinboro, and Prof S. E.
Downs, Superintendent of Schools, Latrobe. For the music numbere they were Mrs.
John H. Miller, Director of Music, State Normal School, Bloomsburg; Mr. John Hepple
Shephard, Director of .Music in the Mansfield State Normal School, and Prof. Bertram
S. Webber, of Greensburg.
The program was as fallows:

TTTE TNSTAXO
In the debate, Charles Margiotti was champion for the Erodelphians, and Mac
Trimble for the Huyghenians. On the affirmative side Margiotti and Gayley showed
well that Latin and Greek were dead languages, pleading the need of efficient prepa-
aration for life which can best be gained by a study of the sciences, mathematics and
the mother tongue, not of the classics. They showed that the study of Latin and Greelc
on account of the use of English translations, produced intellectual softness and was
destructive to character. Both men spoke with ease and effectiveness. Mr. Trimble
and Mr. Davis upheld the negative side of the question splendidly. They told of the
great number of students who elected the classical course, when allowed to do so, an j
of the necessity of a knowledge of the so-called dead languages in the study of chem-
istry, applied science, history, and medicine.
Mr. Margiotti in the rebuttal cleverly turned the points his opponents had made
against them, controverting most of their theories. The decision of the judges was in
favor of the negative, thus giving three points to the Huyghenians.
In the vocal solos. Miss Parsons certainly displayed great animation and vivac-
ity, while Miss .Tamison expressed well the tender feeling and emotion shown in the
words of hor song. The decision was in favor of Miss Parsons, for the Huyghenians.
Miss Lowrie's essay was delightful, and displayed her talent for vivid picturing,
'bringing before our minds the rich Oriental luxury and s\inshine and perfume of
Omar's Garden, the theme being the search for hap|)incss and the thorns and deserts
we cross in the quest.
"The American Home." by Miss Lardin, showed earnest preparation and consid-
erable depth of thought. She presented one of the most puzzling problems of the day
and offered some well considered suggestions tor its solution. The stage presence of
both -Miss Lardin and her opponent was unusually graceful and well poised. This
point was won by Miss Lardin, for the Erodelphians.
Though we all know Miss Remmy's talent in reading, we never before so much
appreciated it. Her splendid expression and feeling made the audience thrill with ex-
citement, enthusiasm, and tenseness of the runners in the ancient Olympic games, and,
lor us, linked the past with the present in a way we had not thought of before.
In "Laddie," Miss Marshall told the tender, pathetic story of a wealthy son's em-
barrassment at the arrival of his mother, "a homely, countrified little body." Miss
Marshall gave the emotional parts excellently. She certainly deserves praise for her
splendid rendition of a most effective little story. Thi.? point went to the Erodelphian.s.
Miss Treichler's piano solo, "The Erl Konig." was played with considerable
power. The different stages of the theme were flashed vividly before us — ^the father's
midnight journey with his sick child, then the fateful leering face of the Elf King,
and, finally, the father's despair at his realization of the child's death.
"The Sixth Hungarian Rhapsody." by Miss Genevieve Murray, was played beau-
tifully, and showed a splendid touch, brilliant technique, and faultless expression.
The decision was in her favor.
Mr. Adams' oration taught the sublime and peaceful influence of the night, the
softening effect of adversity. The energy of his delivery and the grace of his stage
presence were very telling.
Mr. Carmalt's oration was a plea for efficiency, — that qualiity which makes the
difference between a hero and a coward, a great soul and a little one. His thought
and expression were excellent. The judges awarded this to the Erodelphians.
Thus the closely fought battle went to the Erodelphians by one point. The
highest grade given by any judge was 100 per cent for Mac Trimble; the highest aver-
age grade, from the votes of three judges, was 98 2-?, for Miss Marshall. In announce-
ing the decision of the judges. Dr. Ament commented upon the excellent self-control
and ease of all the contestants and expressed his pride in the high quality of the work.
Indeed, it was a contest of which any school might be proud.

ALLIED ARTS
The .society of the Conservatory of Music is designed to stimu-
late a love of what is true and beautiful in all of the arts. Its motto
is "Cultur(> is the pathway to a higher life." Programs upon Greeiari
art and are%teeture. masterpieces in art, Gounod's "Faust." Nurem-
hurg in "prose, poetry and art," "American Women in the Arts,"
Longfellow '.s "Keramos. " with musical accompaniiuent, Wagner's
"Ideal Women." evenings with composers, poets and authors, ad-
dres.ses upon some j)hase of art by Dr. Anient and other.s, song and
piano recitals, etc.. show the character of the club's activities.
The club seal was designed by ]Mr. Metheny. A Grecian figure
represents the unity of the arts. She lights her lamp from the Divine
fire which signifies the drawing of inspiration. A palm branch signi-
fies Peace and Victory; a wreath, earthly honors, and a scorpion inside
of th(» wreath tiie stiiig that such honors contain.
Ivy leaves typify death, to which art is superior; a Delia repre-
sents perfection; a circle, the shape of the seal, symiiolizes eternity,
star.s at the top of the design, ideals above and beyond our reach. A
harp shown in conventionalized .smoke typifies the elusive mystery of
music.
The oiificers for Iftll and "12 are Orca Reincke, Presidctil ; .luhn
Renwiek Metheny. Chronicler, and Mrs. Cogswell, Mrs. Wrigley. .Misi

THE SENIOR HAY RIDE
The class of IBl'i started its famous career as a Senior
class by showing the Juniors that we did not need any of
their a.ssistance in successfully carrying out our annual
hay ride.
The night before tlu' hay ride was an ideal one for
preparations. Armed with buckets of paint, ladders, rope.s,
haiuiers. etc.. the Si'uiors started out to paint the i)lace. In
spite of the fact that no .luniors were near enough to offer
resislaiu'e and that "liill" .lack did not favor such elabor-
ate pre])arations, the Seniors managed to have a jiretty
good time. The only thing to be regretted was the pocn-
showing made by the .luniors. as there did not seem to ha
enough ginger in the whole hunch to successfully cupe with
a gang from first and second grades of the Model School.
Since no Juniors were in sight there was nothing to do
but jnit u]) the colors. Occasionally a Junior became hun-

SENIOR SLEIGHRIDE
As soon as we came back to school after the holidays,
f)lans were laid foi' our Senior sleigli-ride. On account of
the size of the class, it was rather difficult to find a place
large enough to accommodate us. A nunilxT of places were
taken u[) and discussed, but after considei'ation it was de-
cided that we should go to Homer City.
Accordingly preparations were made in regard to sleds
and that most important of all things, — the chicken and
waffle dinner.
The sleds were a little slow in arriving, hut when we
were started we soon made up for lost time.
When we arrived at Homer City we had a short dance
before dinner.

WiE could go into de-
tails and tell you a
— ^n^' lot about our fa-
^*^^l cilities for doing
high-grade commercial and
book-work, but that may not
interest you — it's proof that
you want, and we are per-
fectly satisfied to let you de-
cide for or against us on the
merits of our products. A
glance through the pages of
the book of which this ad-
vertisement is a part, we
feel, will do more for us
than anything we could do
or say ourselves, so far as
quality and artistic merit
are concerned. Our plant
is completely equipped for
the rapid production of all
kinds of printing. It you
have special folders or pam-
phlets that you issue in con-
nection with your business,
we can make them worth
100 per cent more to you if
you will permit us to sub-
mit estimates on high-grads
work. Or, if you wish, we
shall not only do the print-
ing for you, but the writing
of the text matter, selection
of illustrations, etc. Our
policy is to fill an order just
a little better than you ex-
pect, which accounts for the
fact that this plant has
grown from a small, second-
story room, employing five
people, to the building here-
with shown, in which we oc-
cupy four stories and em-
ploy thirty psople. included
therein being a modern rul-
ing, binding and loose-leaf
ledger plant, in which this
book was bound.
